Alright, let's bring over yet another classic challenge. This one is a bit tricky to understand - you are trying to find the lowest number ("n"), such that you can solve the level with no more than N uses of each skill, while also remaining within the original skillset.
So in other words - for an N-of-each solution to count, all of the following conditions must be met:
1. The solution actually solves the level (of course)
2. No skill type is used more times than the skillset (+ available pickups, where applicable) already allows for
3. No skill type is used more than N times
Preassigned skills do not count towards this, as usual.

My replays of interest for Lemmings Redux/Gentle.
-
A lot of easy ones in this rank that we got at about the same time. This is the only one I got ahead of namida :P
-
My replays of interest for Quirky.
Quirky 6 and Quirky 31 both beat the DOS results. Quirky 6 is probably possible on DOS but I can't be bothered trying to confirm it. Quirky 31 will not work on DOS due to the lower lemming count, although it should work on Amiga.
-
Interesting replays for Redux/Zany.
DOS result for Zany 16 is 3 of each, and is not marked as needing a glitch. I can't see how to do it even with glitches, though.
-
Interesting replays for Redux/Manic.
Manic 13 "Upside-down World", 2 of each
Manic 14 "Come on over to my place", 2 of each
Manic 15 "The Silence Of The Lemmings", 2 of each
Manic 16 "A BeastII Of A Level", 6 of each
Manic 18 "The Gate Trap Lemmings", 2 of each
Manic 21 "Electric Circuit", 2 of each
Manic 27 "Watch Your Fingertip!", 3 of each
Mod Edit: Manic 18 replay updated.
-
Lunatic 2 "The Boiler Room" - 7 of each (R). My 6-builder solution doesn't help here - it uses 7 bombers and 8 climbers, and barely makes it even with that
Lunatic 3 "Anxiety" - 4 per SYCLW
Lunatic 4 "No Added Colors Or Lemmings" - 2, as every skill is required
Lunatic 5 "There's Madness In The Method" - 2, as per SYCLW
Lunatic 6 "Which One Are You Trying To Get?" - 2 of each (R)
Lunatic 7 "Down, Along, Up. In That Order" - 5, as per SYCLW (+ a bit of common sense)
Lunatic 8 "Lemming About Town" - 4, as per SYCLW
Lunatic 9 "Evacuating A Coal Mine" - 3 of each. The 2-basher solution requires 3 builders, while the 2-builder solution requires (at least) 5 bashers.
Lunatic 10 "Be More Than Just A Number" - 9, as per SYCLW
Lunatic 11 "Fix The Road, Quick" - 8, per SYCLW
Lunatic 12 "Water Processing Plant" - 7, per SYCLW
Lunatic 13 "This Corrosion" - 7, per SYCLW
Lunatic 14 "Move On In Two Seperate Groups" - 5, per SYCLW
Lunatic 15 "Evil Whisper" - 2, per SYCLW
Lunatic 16 "SEGA Four" - 5 of each (this is just the no-climber solution, which very obviously needs all 5 builders; any solution using fewer builders would need at least 18 climbers).
-
Right. Here's the second half of Lunatic. Most of these results are because of the SYCLW challenge, but some replays are attached for others.
18: 3
19: 11
20: 7
21: 6 (Thanks to namida's Lemmix solution for this one)
22: 6
23: 2
24: 4 (Very close to making it 3, but not quite. This one may need another look)
25: 2
26: 9
27: 7
28: 7
29: 11
30: 4
31: 8
32: 5
